Enjoy an unforgettable evening of glorious entertainment with this Outdoor Proms Concert for two experience.

This is a thrilling open air concert, set in the grounds of some of the UK’s most celebrated stately homes.

Kicking off with a WWI cavalry display, the event begins with a thundering of hooves as the mounted cavalry demonstrate their battlefield skill-at-arms with lances, rifles and spectacular horsemanship.

The entertainment continues with an uplifting and inspiring musical celebration of soul-stirring classical favourites, performed by the New English Concert Orchestra.

Next, the English Field Artillery Company herald the arrival of Britain’s favourite warplane. Amidst a volley of gunfire from a vintage field gun, you hear the unmistakable sound of the Spitfire engine rumbling overhead, followed by a meticulously choreographed aerial display which takes place in the evening sky above.

Then it’s time for the Battle Proms Orchestra to take to the stage with classical hits such as Beethoven’s signature piece, his Battle Symphony, with a full complement of nearly 200 cannons, plus musket fire and fireworks providing a unique and breath-taking musical performance.

The evening will close with a traditional flag-waving sing-along, culminating in a dazzling fireworks extravaganza.

Whether you’re planning a romantic evening as a couple, a celebration as a group, or want to enjoy an amazing day out as a family, this could just be the unique experience you have been looking for.

Gift for Two - Outdoor Proms Concert for two

I received the Gift for Two voucher as a birthday present and the amount of choice of things to do was impressive. I have always wanted to visit Highclere Castle (Downton Abbey on TV). The event was fantastic, a truly special evening to remember forever. Thanks to my daughter for buying me this experience as a gift, thanks to the Battle Proms organisers and performers and to the voucher company for making this special event available to gift. It was a wonderful event and wonderful idea for a special gift.

Great show but problems

This could have been great but wasn't. Parking controllers were wonderful on the way in, but stood around chatting at the end. As a result we were nearly crashed into by a bullying driver, in a very large car, from the opposite bay. We were a metre from the road but having left himself insufficient space to turn on to the road he came across the road and bullied my friend to reverse - which she had very little space to accomplish. Also people talked throughout all the performances and the sound system was not powerful enough to make hearing easy. The performers and demonstrations were wonderful and the fireworks outstanding. Sadly marred by the inconsiderate behaviour of others.
